Better Luck Next Time...
This year I thought it would be fun to participate in Dewey's Read-a-thon. They host a 24 hour read-a-thon twice a year--in April and October. It was scheduled for the 10th of April starting at 5AM and I didn't have any plans. I was SO excited to try it out. Until.... I had to pickup food (that was LATE!) from a co-op I participate in, do my sister-in-law's hair for her engagement pictures, attend a family birthday party, and do 3 haircuts. So, as you can probably guess, in the first 13 hours, I didn't do so great. I read 13 pages to be exact. GO ME! (Sarcasm.) Later that night, my husband went out of town for the night and my son had a sleepover at Grammy's house. I finally thought, THIS IS IT! Now I have 8 more hours until it ends and I can read to my little heart's content! Not the case. I was exhausted and fell asleep reading. :( I did try though! Like the title says, better luck next time!

Meg, let us know when the next one is for sure, and maybe we can all band together and read a ton!
ha ha, that's kinda funny! I guess because if I tried to do something like that, I would end up with worse results!
